The Lord declares in Jeremiah 29:11-13: “For I know the plans
that I have for you, plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a
future and a hope. Then you will call upon Me and come and pray to Me, and I
will listen to you. And you will seek Me and find me, when you search for Me
with all of your heart.” Lord, may Your plans for us be the same. Grant these
that gather here today Your divine wisdom and direction. Give them clarity of
vision for the prosperity of this state. May they be the examples of our
hopeful future, which is in Your hands. We ask this in Your Sovereign and Holy
Name.

Amen.

Pledge of allegiance to the Flag.

Assemblywoman Buckley moved that further
reading of the Journal be dispensed with, and the Speaker and Chief Clerk be
authorized to make the necessary corrections and additions.

Motion carried.
